Avoid the Summer Slide

Every year children across the country experience what is known as "The Summer Slide." The typical child can lose anywhere from 1-3 months of academic progress every summer! In an effort to minimize this loss, the Solana Beach School District has put together a number of resources to "step up to the learning challenge" over the summer. Of course the very best activity for them to do is to READ, READ, READ- so if you do nothing else, please provide 20 minutes a day for your child to read for pleasure...However, if you are looking for other activities to enjoy over the summer, please visit our website and click on the Avoid the Summer Slide link. You will find a variety of STREAM (Science, Technology, Research, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics) activities as well as links to Dream Box, Compass Learning and a Keyboarding program. Feel free to try out any and/or all of the various resources-It's all about challenging the brain a little bit each day with fun, yet educational activities.We wish you a safe, restful and fun Summer!
